In this episode the guests have all gone, and we slowly make our way northbound. Our eventual destination will be Malaysia, but there's a whole lot to see in between.
We do some post-guest boat maintenance, including cleaning and drying some of the sails and the Mini Cat inflatable catamaran.
As we pass through Telos, we snorkel on a sunken shipwreck that has become home to many little local fish.
We land in some good, and some not so good anchorages on Nias. The good one, in the northwest, is called Afulu Bay, and offers a neat dinghy trip upriver for our provisioning run.
Our last stop in Nias, at the north end of the island, is a bigger town named Lahewa that was not so long ago almost completely destroyed by a tsunami wave. They seem to be getting back on their feet really well, and Lahewa is now again a bustling town.
Stay tuned for next time, when we will set out for a couple of day passage to an island off north Sumatra, and the town of Sabang.
Thanks for following!
